Girl Friend – Poison

Manchester’s Girl Friend extends their streak of terrific releases with more of their 80’s electronic pop influenced muggy music, via new song Monte Carlo. The glossy dance pop treat is an intoxicating affair, carrying a whimsical disco pop sass and a refined lushness. The silken vocals and uptempo energy remind me of Hot Chip, but with a hazy retro sheen that’s utterly charming and hooking and an enchanting vibe that reminds me of San Francisco’s Geographer.

Started in 2014 and inspired by the classic and refined electronic pop Manchester’s GIRL FRIEND found a sound all of their own. A band unknowingly fizzing with modern feel and described recently as ‘honing in on the particulars of passion and desire.’
